Recruitment Process

Siemens Recruitment ProcessWe recognise that the recruitment and retention of our employees is a key element in the ongoing success of our business. The aim of our recruitment process is to ensure we understand your career goals, aspirations and experience, and you have the opportunity to decide if Siemens is the right place for you.

 

During the recruitment process you may be asked to participate in one or more of the following activities:


Apply Online:

Submitting your job application online, upon finding a suitable vacancy, is the first step to beginning a career with Siemens. Our recruitment team will then review your application and determine if your individual capabilities, qualifications and experience match our requirements. You will receive an email notification to confirm that your application has been received.

 

Telephone Interview:

If you meet the selection criteria you may be contacted for an initial telephone interview. During this stage, we will have the opportunity to find out more about you, while you will have the opportunity to learn more about our company and the position you have applied for.

 

Face-to-Face Interview:

Based on the information you have provided in your application and during the telephone interview, you may be invited to attend at least one face to face interview. You may be asked questions about your skills, competencies and experience and how these relate to the role you have applied for. During the interview you are encouraged to ask questions about our company, the role you have applied for or the recruitment process in general. It is important to note that interviews are a two way process that allows us to determine if you meet our requirements and provides you with the opportunity to gather as much relevant information about our company and the role itself, so that you can assess if our career opportunity is right for you. Interview details such as the time, location and the recruitment process will be provided to you in advance.

 

Job-related Testing:

Depending on the role you have applied for, you may be required to participate in a selection of aptitude tests. These tests assist us in determining your suitability for the role and typically include numeric reasoning, verbal reasoning and an occupational personality questionnaire. The results of these tests are assessed by qualified psychologists and compared against industry norms that are relevant to the criteria being reviewed. Some positions may also require additional testing , for example, skills tests and/or pre-employment medical examinations. Details pertaining to these activities will be provided to you by a member of our recruitment team in advance.

 

Reference Checks:

In the application form, you will be asked to provide contact details for two referees who can confirm your work experience. These referees will be contacted and asked to comment on your skills and experience in relation to the role you have applied for. These referees will generally be previous supervisors, managers and colleagues who have direct knowledge of your abilities. We will conduct a minimum of two reference checks with your nominated referees. Referees will only be contacted once you have authorised us to do so.

 

Background/Probity Checks:

We value honesty and integrity in everything that we do. We conduct our business responsibly and in compliance with local and international laws and regulations. Employment within some areas of our business is conditional upon passing a probity (background) check. This may include identity, integrity and credential checks which are required to help assess your suitability to the role you have applied for. A member of our recruitment team will advise you if you are required to complete a probity (background) check authorisation form. These checks will not be completed until you have been selected to proceed in the recruitment process. All offers of employment are subject to satisfactory probity checks.

Offer & Acceptance:

We hope that throughout the recruitment process you will have had the opportunity to meet our people and gained a clearer understanding of our business, enabling you to make an informed decision about whether Siemens is the right company for you. If you are successful at the final stage of our recruitment process, we will make an initial verbal offer of employment that, if accepted, will be followed by a written contractual offer.
